NEW YORK, Feb. 7, 2013 /CNW/ - For the third year in a row, TD Bank Group has won over the investment community to be named the number one
Canadian company in investor relations (IR) at the IR Magazine Awards - Canada 2013.

Tuesday night's awards gala at the Fairmont Royal York in Toronto was
dominated by TD. Besides winning the grand prix for best overall IR -
large cap, TD nabbed seven more trophies to win a record-breaking eight awards in one evening, including best IR by a CEO - large cap for Edmund Clark and best IR by a CFO - large cap for Colleen Johnston.

More impressively, 2013 marks the third year in a row that TD has won
the grand prix for large-cap companies. The same winning streak was
achieved by Clark and Johnston, who both won IR Magazine Awards in
2011, 2012 and now again in 2013.

Rogers Communications' Bruce Mann managed to prevent TD from winning every award category in which it was
nominated by winning best investor relations officer - large cap. This
is the third time Mann has taken the honor, having previously won in
2011 and 2007. This year, Rogers was a double winner with another award
for best in sector - technologies.

Among the mid-cap companies, the grand prix for best overall IR went to Bombardier, another double winner with best in sector - industrials. Among the
small-cap companies, the grand prix for best overall IR went to
first-time nominee Genivar, whose CEO Pierre Shoiry was named Best IR by a CEO - small cap. For a full list of winners in
all award categories, please see below.

Now in their 16th year, the IR Magazine Awards - Canada are the result
of intensive and painstaking research to identify the best IR at Canada's public companies and to provide a
window into the thinking of IR's most important audience: the
investment community. From a representative sample, weighted for
Canada's industry sectors, researchers conducted in-depth interviews
with 250 portfolio managers and analysts across Canada. The company with the highest score in a particular award
category was declared the winner.
